Great sweater!

The sweater that I ordered is the best that I've ever possesed - recommendation!

The sweater that I ordered is the best that I've ever possesed my whole life long. It also keeps me warm at temperatures below 0 degrees - with no need of wearing an additional winter jacket. Thanks so much!
2 things that could be improved: 1. an estimate of the custom charges would help and 2. to be informed on the duration of the manufacturing process to get an idea about how long one will have to wait for the delivery.

Good to know

Lopapeysa questions, answered

How do I find my size?

Lopapeysur are knitted to fit generously. The most reliable way: measure a favourite sweater flat and compare it with the size chart on each product page. Our full guide: how to find your size.

Is Icelandic wool itchy?

It has a rustic feel — a lopapeysa is made to be worn over a shirt or light layer, not on bare skin. The wool softens noticeably with wear, and that same robust fibre is what makes it windproof and long-lived.

How do I care for a lopapeysa?

Mostly, you don't wash it — airing it out is usually enough, as Icelandic wool is naturally self-cleaning. When it truly needs washing: hand wash in cool water with wool soap, press the water out gently and dry flat.

Do US orders pay customs on delivery?

No — duties and taxes are settled at checkout, so there is nothing to pay when the parcel arrives. No customs bills, no courier fees.
